Albert Lewis

Biography

In 1915, while Europe’s battlefields ignited, Albert Lewis stepped before the camera twice: first as a monarch in the one-reel fantasy *A Royal Family*, then as the elusive sprite who befriends a street child in *The Fairy and the Waif*. Those twin one-reelers—both shot, cut, and screened within the same frantic year—are the surviving footprints of an actor whose flicker of fame flashed and vanished with the silent era.
